This Coachwhip Snake was the most exciting thing we saw in the ghost town of Ballarat, west of Death Valley. The Coachwhip is a long, slender, non-poisonous snake.

This was one of the few ruined buildings that still remained in the ghost town of Ballarat west of Death Valley. The buildings were made of adobe and have crumbled away over the years.

Heading south out of Death Valley National Park, we stopped at the ghost town of Ballarat, where we took some photos of this old truck. There is not much left of the town - a kind of store and museum and a few ruined buildings and that is all. In fact, the most exciting thing we saw in the town was a Coachwhip Snake (see inset).
